Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.

Winston Churchill

'Building back greener and building back fairer and building back more equal and, how shall I, in a more gender neutral and, perhaps a more feminine way.

Boris Johnson

Boris has been quite a disappointment.

The Brits were bankrupt from the war and they couldn't hold on to the Empire, so they ungratefully tossed out Sir Winston and voted in a nanny state in 1945.

They lost 1.5 million men in 2 wars between 1914 and 1945. The vast majority of those left were weak men.

Roosevelt was a socialist twat, but Biden isn't fit to sniff his farts.

I can’t believe I used to think Boris would be the English Trump. I think they were on point along policy back a few years ago perhaps but Boris had gone full woke now it seems.

I mean Churchill was great when there was a war going on, but pretty shitty outside of that.

Most conservative European government officials, would be considered liberal in the US. Europe is a lost cause at this point

You also have to consider that Britain’s entire political apparatus is a notch or two to the left compared to ours. The Tories are not a 1:1 comparison to the GOP. They are probably more accurately comparable to the mythical 90’s Clinton/Third Way Democrats.

( and yes I know that Blair aka Mr. Third Way was Labour, but the Labour Party has fallen off the deep end much like the left in our country has)

UK was a super power under Churchill, today it is an insignificant third rate country. Who cares what Johnson says or does? The UK's best days were long ago.

Churchill's mom was an American, New York, so I like to think his American side was what made him such a great leader.

Compare our country’s progressive shift a generation after the Civil War.

God, I’d hate to bring him back, but I’d love to hear Churchill’s thoughts on what we are going through.
